Thanks again, guys.
Baz - ISO400, f/8, 1/125s. Good starting point for macro at around 1:1 is to shoot full Manual, f/11, 1/100s to 1/200s, and play with the ISO around 400 to 800 abs max. What you're trying to do is get the exposure up to maybe 1 stop under. Set the flash exposure compensation to -2/3 say. This prevents you from overexposing the subject, and the background is not too dark. You see lots of macro photos with black backgrounds and overexposed shiny subjects. As with all photography, you need to control the light.
